Asian and European markets are showing good numbers as well as metals market but the biggest winner of the day is now oil. “Black gold” has breached new heights in almost three years and the numbers are bringing a lot of joy to the investors. In the meantime SpaceX is trying to take on a lot of projects hoping to attract more investors.

SpaceX and its owned Elon Musk, regardless of all the mishaps which seem to follow Musk around have launched yet another rocket and the destiny of this one is also very interesting.

American based SpaceX launched Falcon 9 rocket which is meant to bring NASA developed satellite to the orbit of the Earth. This apparatus was specifically designed in order to look for and hopefully find Earth-like planets which are suitable for life.

Rocket was launched from spaceport in Florida. In three minutes after the launch successful separation of the first stage took place with consecutive landing on the barge in Atlantic Ocean approximately an hour after the start.

According to resources initial launch was booked for Tuesday but it was moved for one day in order to re-check some of the systems. Apparatus TESS on board the rocket will have to research about 200 thousand starts and look for Earth-like planet, suitable for human life. Moving on highly elliptical orbit it will scan the space for about 2 years reporting to Earth once every 13 days.

SpaceX is trying to come into more and more projects at the moment as the success of the company, while undeniable, could be questionable with Elon Musk’s projects not being too successful and attractive for investors.
